in-Chief Vandervort, of Omaha, introduced
a preamble and series OF resolutions con-
demning President Cleveland's policy in
Grand Army matters In the most severe
terms The preamble recites the Presidents
action In the matter OF pensions and then
dwells on his "attempt to have the rebel
flags captured in battle returned to the re-
bellious Southern States" 1t also refers to
his general policy OF snubbing the Union
veterans and h0noring ex- -Confederates with
place and power in the Administration. T"
The resolutions call for formal
condemnation of President Cleveland
and his methods in those matters and
pledge the Grand Army to the support Of
any Presidential candidate known to be q
sympathizer with the Union and the men
that fought therefor. The reading of the
! resolutions created an uproar, and loud pro-
testations were mingled with cheers Un-

without debate. There Is no doubt but that
they will be considerably pruned down in
committee before being referred buck to the
convention, the committee having that
power. Ono thing is certain, they will cause
